It's your lovely daughter that's treating you isn't it GetOrf?
Hope you have a lovely time.
I'm so not a foodie, though I'd draw the limits at Talc's menu, so Monsieur Wotsit would pass me by.
Enjoy Grin

Lol at cold and dead to you.

Kristin Scott Thmas would know. I always think my life would be so much simpler if I was KST.

I think that there should be an English equivalent to the Michelin guide and their star awards.

Do you think Halfords would be interested?

LadyBeagleEyes · 06/06/2013 00:04

Anyway I'm of to google this French chap to see if he's good enough for you.
I have heard of him but I may be getting him mixed up with some other Frenchie cheffy type.

Halfords. J'aime leurs choses pour voitures. C'est un magasin que je trouve superbe. Je voudrais acheter all manner de choses qui I have no idea about parce que ils seem to be trop useful. C'est comme les magasins stationery.

Haines rather than Halfords, I would think. Or how about Dunlop?

Ah, ok, I was thinking of Albert.

Je pense Mme Roux would be telling Michel to descend de Getorf.

Elle a les legs jusqu'a les ears et il est un peu on le petit side.

Tu le trouve un peu dodgy fit lovey Grin
